Bekut Falls is a cascade type waterfall situated on a boulder landscape stream. Due to its boulder landscape, the waterfall scene is less defined and tricky to scale via river trek. The waterfall has 2 levels with the lower level shown here with a moderate sized but deep pool. This waterfall is NOT suitable for beginners to attempt without a guide due to its challenging landscape and vague jungle trails.

Bekut Fall 1

Head to Chenderiang town as the main landmark nearby. Do be aware that Chenderiang town does not have a direct access from the North-South Highway. Visitors from the north will have to exit the highway early at Gopeng exit and access Jln Chenderiang (Route A119) from Jeram town. Visitors from the south will on the other hand exit the highway via Tapah exit and use Jln Chenderiang Lama (Route A19). Follow this state road up to the junction going into Kg Orang Asli Sg Cincin. (Image 1) After taking the junction in, follow the narrow tarred road where it leads to the village. Take the left junction in where it passes a village townhall building. Follow this stretch of gravel road where visitors will reach the start of the trail head where there is a right junction to enter into a palm oil estate right before the bridge (here). Visitors can look for parking spaces by the road shoulder without obstructing passing vehicles that share the road. Proceed by foot from here on out.

Navigate across the palm oil estate to its border at the end where a trail connects to a dual track dirt road. From this dual track road there is no obvious landmarks to describe the trail. Visitors should engage a guide who is familiar with the local jungle landscape to avoid unfortunate incidents. There are 2 jungle trails, each following one side of the stream. Both trails join at a point deeper in the jungle (Image 2), a short distance before the 1st waterfall. From this point, do not follow the trail going up the right side of the slope uphill but instead continue via river side / river trek to the waterfall. This trail on the right is suspected to be an alternative trail to Gng Bujang Melaka and will not lead to the waterfall. To reach the upper falls, continue treking along the river for another estimated ~400m distance. Fall #2 is a 2 tier rocky cascade fall with a small pool documented in the photos below.
